The voice recognition technology has certainly come a LONG way since I first tried using Dragon's Naturally Speaking software back in the early(?) 1990s. I remember having to put on a headset and sit for hours dictating into Dragon's app to get it to learn my voice, and it never really performed that well. But that was over two decades ago! Also, a tablet or smartphone is exponentially faster with more memory than the early 1990s PCs. That was an era of 80286 processors and 640 KB or RAM.

At any rate, voice recognition and AI technologies have both advanced quite a bit now, and the computers as well. We are still not to the HAL 9000 level, but that is probably a good thing...
